From a university student to a chief academician

Chapter 138 Cryptography Research Completed, Entering the Final Testing Stage

With Tian Yong's authorization, Ye Fei can watch all the blockchain documents in the Mathematical Society's archives online.

Documents in the Mathematical Society, according to the status of the members of the Mathematical Society, you can view documents of different levels.

The higher the status, the more important the documents to read.

The Mathematics Society classifies literature into four grades: A, B, C, and D.

Group members can see D-level, individual members can see C-level, honorary members can see B-level, and positions above the vice chairman can see A-level.

There are four grades of blockchain literature, with D grade being the most and A grade being the least.

In the society, the higher the position, not only to gain greater status and rights, but also to read more important documents and contact better bosses.

Because of this, everyone wants to climb up.

For the next time, Ye Fei will read literature whenever he has spare time.

Time passed quietly, and the Spring Festival passed in a blink of an eye, and the time came to mid-February!
Zhonghu University, Number Theory Group Office!

Ye Fei looked at the team members under him, and said with a smile: "Everyone, how is the research going in the past half month?

When Ye Fei returned to Zhonghu University last month, the members of his number theory team were about to prove the Serre conjecture in the modular form.

Sometimes, Ye Fei himself feels that it is really important to have him or not in the number theory group.

Look, the modular form has been studied for more than half a year, his cryptography research is almost over, and the members of the number theory team have not yet proved the modular form.

If he was there, it might take three to four months to prove all the problems of the model.

Of course, Ye Fei would not blame the people in the number theory team, Ye Fei knew his own situation.

He is a systematic person, and other people can't compare with him.

In fact, Ye Fei may have been doing research very fast all along, so he doesn't understand the sufferings of the world.

Generally, it is normal to study a mathematical problem for several years.

After only half a year of research on the model form, more than half of it has been proved, which is already very fast.

Amata said: "The verification of the correctness of the projective representation was just completed yesterday."

According to the research direction given by Ye Fei, the Serre conjecture is divided into four parts, namely Serre series, Serre weight, correctness verification of linear representation and correctness verification of projective representation.

Ye Fei said: "So you have completed Serre's conjecture?"

"Yeah!" Amata nodded, "Yes."

Ye Fei said: "Come on, tell me about the whole research of Serre's conjecture, let me see if there are any problems in your research, and if there are problems, I can help you to correct them."

"Han Dong, tell me."

"Okay!" Han Dong said.

After finishing speaking, Han Dong walked to the whiteboard, picked up a pen to write and draw on the whiteboard, and explained Serre's conjecture to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei's brain was running along with his explanations, pointing out some of the mistakes from time to time.

After a long time, Ye Fei said: "There are almost no major mistakes, but there are small flaws in these places, you should correct them."

"Okay, team leader!" everyone said.

Ye Feidao: "You can write Serre's conjecture into a paper and try to publish it to some top journals."

"Top journal?" The members of the number theory team were surprised.

They have more or less published papers to top journals before.

But that's just a fantasy, thinking maybe I can live it!

Not surprisingly, they all survived.

Four top journals in mathematics, Mathematics Annals, Mathematics New Advances, Mathematics Journal and Beili National Mathematics Society Journal.

The difficulty of passing the review is very high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to pass.

At Zhonghu University, only a very small number of professors have published papers in top journals.

Even looking at the whole country, there are very few, maybe only seven or eight papers can enter the new progress of mathematics every year.

Sometimes there are not even seven or eight articles.

You know, from the end of the last century to the present, Xia Guo only had hundreds of papers, which were included in the New Advances in Mathematics.

But as long as it is included, it will arouse the envy of many people, and the school will hang a banner for a month to show off.

People who publish papers also have very beautiful experiences on their resumes.

Someone asked: "Leader, can we succeed?"

Ye Feidao: "You guys write out your thesis, and then I'll help you polish it, and pass the review of the new progress in mathematics. There's no problem at all."

"New progress in mathematics!" Everyone was excited.

New Advances in Mathematics is the most difficult journal among the four top journals, except for the Annual Journal of Mathematics.

It can be said that among all journals in the field of mathematics, the difficulty of new progress in mathematics ranks second.

At the same time, most of the papers published by Xia Guo mathematicians to the top journals are new advances in mathematics.

Therefore, New Advances in Mathematics is the sacred place in the hearts of people who study mathematics in Xiaguo. Many people who are engaged in the field of mathematics dream that their papers will be included in New Advances in Mathematics.

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Don't be so excited, it's actually not as difficult as you think."

Everyone looked at Ye Fei speechlessly, is it not difficult to top the magazine?
Yes, it is not difficult for you.

But it is very difficult for us.

Ye Feidao: "In order to give each of you a chance, you can divide the work and cooperate to write a paper. Everyone has to write, and everyone will be a writer after that."

A work can be one person, or it can be many people.

However, when multiple authors work, when the paper is published, it will be marked as the first author with the same contribution as the first author, or the same contribution or similar words.

"Okay!" Everyone said enthusiastically.

Ye Fei said: "Han Dong, follow up on this matter, and send it to my mailbox after writing it."

"Okay!" Han Dong said.

Ye Fei said: "Also, you can take this paper and try to apply for an award. This is a guess after all, and you might win an award!"

Someone asked: "Team leader, what kind of award is suitable for applying for? We have no experience in this field. You often win awards and have experience. Tell us about it!"

"Yes, team leader, tell us about it!"

Ye Fei couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't you usually study awards?"

Someone said: "If you don't study it, it's useless to study it, and you can't win an award anyway, so why study that thing?"

99% of mathematicians in the mathematics world will never win prizes in their lifetime.

One is that Xia Guo has few awards.

Second, the world of mathematics is too volumetric.

Third, it is very difficult to win awards.

Fourth, mathematics is difficult, and it is even more difficult to win awards through mathematics.

"Okay!" Ye Fei said, "Then I'll tell you about it."

"As we all know, the awards of each discipline are divided into foreign awards and domestic awards."

"En!" Everyone nodded.

"Foreign awards are divided into local awards and international awards."

"Native awards are awarded only to scholars from their own countries, while international awards are awarded to scholars from all countries in the world."

"But it is too difficult to win an international award, so don't even think about foreign awards."

"We just have to keep an eye on the domestic awards."

"The domestic awards are divided into three types of awards."

"They are the Xia Guo Award, the Xia Guo International Award and the Chinese Award."

"The Xia Guo Award is awarded to Xia Guo people. The Xia Guo International Award is established by Xia Guo and awarded to people from all countries in the world. The Chinese Award is awarded to Chinese people all over the world."

"The Xia Guo International Award and the Chinese Award are very difficult to win, so we only need to focus on the Xia Guo Award."

"The Xia Guo Award is also classified according to mathematics. There are many awards. In the field of number theory, the National Science and Technology Award can be awarded."

"The National Science and Technology Award is further divided into the National Highest Science and Technology Award, the National Natural Science Award, the National Technological Invention Award, the National Science and Technology Progress Award and the Xia Guo International Science and Technology Cooperation Award."

"In addition to the National Science and Technology Award, there are Hua Luogeng Award, Chen Shiingshen Award and Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation Award."

"Of these awards, only the Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation Award is suitable for you. Don't even think about the rest of the awards. It's useless."

There are not many mathematics awards established by Xia Guo, and the difficulty of winning several awards is very high.

The five awards in the National Science and Technology Awards can only be awarded if they have made significant contributions.

For example, the National Natural Science Award, the first winner of the award was Hua Luogeng, who won the award for proving the theory of multivariate complex variable functions on typical domains.

Others have invented artificial fully synthetic bovine insulin.

Some people have made significant achievements in the study of Goldbach's conjecture, which is helpful to the study of Goldbach's conjecture.

The National Natural Science Award is one of the five major awards of the National Science and Technology Award, and the difficulty of winning the other four awards is similar to that of the National Natural Science Award.

It is conceivable that the difficulty of winning the National Science and Technology Award is high.

"Only this one?" Everyone asked in surprise.

Ye Fei said: "Yes."

Everyone is helpless, there is only this one award, and the difficulty of winning the award will be much higher.

Some people lamented in their hearts: "It's no wonder that many people have never won awards in their entire lives. It turns out that it is so difficult to win awards."

"It's amazing that the team leader can win the award. He has already won five or six awards now!"

"No one else has won any. He has won five or six awards at such a young age."

"Moreover, most of them were won in the previous two years. He didn't apply for any awards in these two years, so he didn't win."

"If you apply, you will definitely get some awards."

Ye Feidao: "It doesn't matter if you can't win an award. Most people in the mathematics world have failed to win an award. Look at our college. How many teachers have won awards?"

"There's no need to pursue awards too much. As long as you have the strength, it doesn't matter if you don't win awards."

"Awards are all fake, strength is king."

Everyone was speechless, you don't feel back pain when you stand and talk, you have won several awards, but we didn't win any awards.

Of course, they also knew that Ye Fei was comforting them.

But this consolation is better than no consolation, it is really too heart-wrenching.

Ye Fei saw that his consolation didn't seem to work, he felt helpless, he really wasn't suitable for comforting others.

Ye Fei said: "Okay, let me talk about the next research."

"The next step is the reduction reconstruction method of modular form and Galois representation calculation, which is also the final research of modular form."

"This part is divided into computing the Ramanujan τ function and computing the τk function."

"First the Ramanujan tau function..."

Ye Fei spent more than an hour explaining the direction of the research.

After a long time, Ye Fei said: "Okay, that's all, do you have any questions?"

Many people raised their hands to ask questions, and Ye Fei answered them one by one.

After another hour, Ye Fei said, "Okay, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Ye Fei stayed at Zhonghu University for one day and left the next morning.

Because the research on cryptography has reached the final stage, and the final stage is the busiest. He needs to go back as soon as possible and cannot stay at Zhonghu University for too long.

Changan University of Electronic Science and Technology Information Resources Research Center, Office!

Ye Fei, Nan Guodong and Cheng Ji'an were sitting in the office.

Nan Guodong said: "Our research on cryptography has almost been completed, and now we are entering the testing stage."

"As long as the test is OK, then the research is all done."

Both Ye Fei and Cheng Ji'an nodded.

Ye Fei asked: "Academician Nan, how to test this time, should we still find other companies to test?"

Nan Guodong shook his head and said, "I won't look for it this time, this time I will do it for real."

"Huh?" Ye Fei and the two were stunned for a moment, and looked at Nan Guodong suspiciously.

Nan Guodong said: "What do we study cryptography? It is to protect the security of network information."

"I discussed with the above, and the above decided to let computer experts from all over the world invade and test our security system."

Ye Fei was puzzled and said: "Let global experts invade? How to invade? Who has nothing to do to invade a country's website? Even if the invasion is done with a purpose, and every time the invasion is done by a small number of people."

"Of course I know that." Nan Guodong said with a smile, "The higher-ups have already thought of a solution, and people are all profit-seeking, so the higher-ups offer 100 million US dollars, and whoever is the first to break the website will give 100 million US dollars."

"Although the money doesn't seem like much, it's still a lot. After all, no one would dislike having too much money."

Ye Fei's eyes lit up, he gave a thumbs up and said, "This trick, only costing 100 million US dollars, has attracted the invasion of computer experts from all over the world."

"If you spend money to invite them here, [-] million won't be enough."

Think about it, there are at least 10,000+ computer experts in the world. Usually, if you want to invite them, the appearance fee will be tens of thousands of yuan, and the skilled ones will even reach hundreds of thousands.

And now 100 million US dollars has hooked them all.

"Yes!" Nan Guodong said with a smile: "Sometimes I really admire these people, they can always think of some simple and practical methods."

"Although I am an academician, I really can't think of this method."

Ye Fei said with a smile: "It's also hard for me to think that this is called specialization in the arts. Others have what others are good at, and we have what we are good at."

"We may not be able to do what others will, and others may not be able to do what we will."

"En!" Nan Guodong nodded.

Cheng Ji'an said: "What if they break through?"

"Uh..." Ye Fei and the two looked at him blankly.

Ye Fei said: "We have studied for so long and used so many talents to study, so we should not be able to break it!"

Cheng Ji'an said: "What if it is breached, after all, there are too many computer masters in the world, no one can say anything about this kind of thing!"

Ye Fei said: "How can it be broken? Our security system uses the supercomputer of the National Supercomputing Center. The calculation is very fast. In addition, we have spent so much energy, time and talents to research a more secure security system."

"And those intruders probably wouldn't use supercomputers to attack!"

"Even if they use supercomputing to attack, can their supercomputing be better than the supercomputing of the National Supercomputing Center?"

"That's clearly impossible."

"So, it's almost impossible for them to break into our security system."

Cheng Ji'an said: "But..."

Nan Guodong waved his hand to stop him and said, "Okay, stop arguing, let me tell you, if it is breached, it will prove that all our previous plans are wrong, and the project has to start again."

Cheng Ji'an said: "If we start all over again, all our previous efforts will be in vain?"

"Yes!" Nan Guodong nodded: "So, just pray not to fail!"

Ye Fei smiled and said: "It is impossible to fail, I am very confident in this regard."

Cheng Ji'an glanced at Ye Fei: "Who can guarantee this, not afraid of [-], just in case."

Ye Fei said: "Old Cheng, you have persecution paranoia. We should have confidence in ourselves and not be timid before fighting."

Cheng Ji'an said unconvinced: "I'm thinking about it again. Besides, my idea is correct. You can guarantee 100% that you won't fail?"

"I can assure you!" Ye Fei said: "With the security system built by a single country with the help of our cryptography talents from all over the country, if it fails, we can find a piece of tofu and kill it."

"What was researched by a country's talents failed in the end. Isn't this an international joke!"

"Okay!" Nan Guodong said with a headache, "Can you stop the meeting?"

Nan Guodong looked at Cheng Ji'an and said, "Although your thoughts are correct, you are too worried."

"As Ye Fei said, the probability of being breached is very low."

Nan Guodong looked at Ye Fei again and said, "Ye Fei, there are accidents in everything. Maybe our research fails. As Cheng Ji'an said, don't be afraid of [-], just in case, in case it might really fail!"

"So, we have to be prepared to fail."

Ye Fei said: "I see, Academician Nan."
